LONDON, ENGLAND.- The V&A and RIBA are opening a new architecture gallery at the V&A to display their world-class collections of architectural drawings, models and objects which have now been brought together at the V&A. The displays will draw on works by the great architects of past centuries and of today from Palladio, Inigo Jones and Christopher Wren to Robert Adam, Le Corbusier and contemporary architects such as Norman Foster. The Architecture Gallery will feature a general introduction to architecture, thematic displays, educational interactive areas and three small temporary exhibitions each year. The gallery will be situated to the right of the main entrance to the V&A on Cromwell Road and has been designed by Gareth Hoskins Architects.
From autumn 2004, there will also be a new set of study rooms and new stores in the Henry Cole wing of the V&A to rehouse the RIBA's Drawings, Manuscripts and Archives Collections alongside the V&A's Prints, Drawings and Paintings collections. The study rooms will allow the public to view the entire archives in an easily accessible way. The study rooms have been designed by architects Wright & Wright.
